I'm not convinced that people need meaningful work-- for a long time, wealthy people seem to have been content to live for the fun of it. I think we're trained to think we need meaningful work.
It's more plausible that people need to think they make a difference to other people, but that's a matter of social and intimate relationships.
I agree. I also think that we might see what we can do to build solid communities where sharing, experiences, ritual, and life are a major driving force. In other words, the way things were not too long ago. Indigenous cultures could be helpful in reminding us how to live in this manner.
